Tire opinions please
« on: December 19, 2013, 08:27:30 pm »
I just dropped to 18" rears and I'm wanting to get some Razr's for the front but don't know if I should get 20 or 21". I've got 20" holeshots for the rear that I will run as much as these 18's so I'm leaning toward a 21 but I don't want it to look utterly retarded kinda how it does now (but it could also be the Dunlops that are on the front instead of some MX style tires that are killing the look too)


Any advice?

If you re goin 18 in back go 20 in front.  21 doesn't look right w 18's..... Or put some 20s in the back for your 21 fronts....

I run 19" on the front of my 250. Only problem is the rim width on the OEM rims and availablity of of rim options. I have a yfz hub conversion in progress. Just lacking rims now.

Arite I think thats what i will do then. I should be getting some more front rims in the not too distant future so i can wrap those with some 20" razr's
I already have 20" rears on stock rims to go with these 21's

I run 22 fronts with 20 rears. Im switching them to 21 fronts today. Im sick of the front  being to big compared to the back.
